H-Bridge Demystified. Basic electronic theory How H-Bridges work Explain terminology Explain where the power goes. Basic Theory: Ohms law. Power = Voltage * Current Voltage = Current * Resistance Examples: .5A * 10 ohms = 5v 5v * .5A = 2.5 watts .5v / .05 ohms = 10a 10a * .5v = 5 watts

H-Bridge Demystified Basic electronic theory How H-Bridges work Explain terminology Explain where the power goes
Basic Theory: Ohms law • Power = Voltage * Current • Voltage = Current * ResistanceExamples: • .5A * 10 ohms = 5v • 5v * .5A = 2.5 watts • .5v / .05 ohms = 10a • 10a * .5v = 5 watts • Power = Current^2 * resistance
Basic Theory: Inductors • V = L * dI/dT - What does that mean??? • Current rises indefinitely based upon inductance and voltage.
Basic Theory: Real Inductors • Real inductors have resistance • Current * resistance = voltage • Eventually current levels out • Strength of magnetic field + level of stored energy are proportional to the current.
Basic Theory: Inductors • What happens when switch is opened? • Current dissipates quickly in the ARC
Basic Theory: Inductors • Diodes used to suppress arcing • Recirculating currents dissipate slower • Note: current continues to flow in inductor • Power is dissipated across diode & inductor internal resistance.
Basic Theory: PMDC motor • PMDC motors can be modeled as an inductor, a voltage source and a resistance. • Torque is proportional to the current • The internal voltage source is proportional to the RPM (Back-EMF) • Stall current/max torque is proportional to the internal resistance.
How H-Bridge works Off Forward Reverse
How H-Bridge Works • This represents traditional PWM motor control • Note low average current flow
H-Bridge: Synchronous Rectification • Use switches instead of diodes • Much more efficient, regenerative braking
H-Bridge Locked-Antiphase • Pro: one line needed for forward/reverse • Con: higher frequencies needed
Locked Antiphase • Voltage swings from +V to –V • No rectification needed • Current ripple twice as large
H-Bridge Examples L293, L298, MC33886, TLE5206, TPIC0108b, etc Simple logic: output = input. Some chips have disables to disconnect all outputs. Advance chips output protection.
H-Bridge Examples LM18200, TLE5205, TPIC0107b, etc.
Demonstration • Actual current flow & voltage charts • Resistor • Inductor (motor) • No load • Load (power delivered) • Negative Load (Regenerative braking)
